On the edge

In Cascais

Posted on 30 July 2011

The three teams training up the coast have now relocated to Cascais, making the short 'offshore' passage this afternoon.

Team Korea, Energy Team and Aleph all sailed down the coast without major incident although the Aleph boat suffered some minor wing damage.

Meanwhile, Artemis Racing, Emirates Team New Zealand and ORACLE Racing have all assembled their AC45 platforms in their team bases, along with their wing sails, ready for the arrival of their crews next week.

Green Comm Racing too has been working on its boat on the forecourt in the race village.

Sunday is a scheduled off day for all of the teams, allowing the event organisers some time to rig TV equipment on the boats.

Some of the teams are expected to resume training on Monday.
